The battle was over, but the visitors in the tower didn't disperse immediately, and everyone was talking about the new mechs with great interest, while also paying attention to the situation outside the city. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Because it was obvious that the mechs outside were about to return, and the city gate was surrounded by soldiers of the army, ordinary citizens and tourists could not approach at all, and could only watch the majestic appearance of those iron cans from a distance here in the tower.

The mecha unit that became a hot topic did not appear in front of the people in the same open as the Sky Knight, and the military recovered it and directly covered it with canvas and transported it away on a railroad locomotive, which was somewhat disappointing. However, winning the battle is a good thing after all, and with the fact that the siege is said to last a week or more today, and there are plenty of opportunities to see the round bird's egg mech, everyone from tourists to citizens is not dissatisfied with the army's secrecy.

But...... We waited for a long time with some other tourists who stayed in the tower to watch the scenery, and we didn't see any signs of the local army regrouping to prepare for a counterattack.

"Emilina, they don't seem to be planning to strike back now. After waiting left and right and waiting for no movement, I couldn't help but walk up to the blonde girl and said to her, "Maybe today's consumption is more serious, or maybe I just want to ask for stability, so I didn't immediately launch a counterattack, in short, it seems useless to wait like this, why don't we go back to the hotel first?"

"Well, that's right. The girl immediately nodded in agreement, "Today, the synthesizer took the initiative to attack in advance, and the human side is very hasty in defense, and the counter-attacking force has probably not completed all the preparations." Although in some cases it is better to implement an imperfect plan now than to wait until next week to implement a perfect plan, there are some things that cannot be forced, and it is useless to change anyone. ”

Lu Yin, who was idle next to him and took out snacks and couldn't stop biting, retracted his gaze and looked at the field battlefield when he heard this, and joined the conversation: "Then Lord Zhenggong, you mean that there is no more to look at today, and the next thing is the free time after the team is disbanded?"

Her Royal Highness the Princess subconsciously affirmed this: "That's right. Is there anything you'd like to go?"

"Of course, I'm going to drag Zhou Yi Darling to do some embarrassing things in those small shops that don't have a formal business license, and I won't be back until late, so you don't have to wait for the two of us to have dinner." ”

If I don't get involved at this time, I feel sorry for my reputation as a gentleman, so I decisively grabbed the arms of the double ponytail with lightning speed, and pulled the girl to the side of the stairs: "Mmmm, this can be there! Come on, Luyin, you have the final say where you go today." ”

The huge paper fan flew over like a hidden weapon and smashed it on my head, and then Emilina's voice sounded three points of annoyance and seven points of amusement: "Zhou Yi, what are you doing so excited, can't you have this, hey! In addition, how long do you two plan to play with this stalk before you two are willing to stop?"

"Although I don't use force on my sister, I don't have the habit of throwing aside the benefits sent to the door, and I must eat it when it's time to eat!" Ignoring the paper fan that fell on the ground, I held my head high and put on a righteous and awe-inspiring appearance, "And as long as this stalk is brought up by a girl, I will definitely answer 100%, not just Lu Yin." ”

"Tsk, Darling, you're really starting to learn to be a flower. The ponytail pouted slightly unpleasantly at first, and then took the initiative to lean over and blow in our ears close to our arms, "But I like it." ”

Is this the rhythm of flirting with the dead, although I don't hate it at all......

In the exclamation of Senior Sister Blue Feather "Meow, how can this be", Emilina walked up to me with a smile on her face, raised her hand and stroked her ponytail lightly, deliberately softened her voice, and said in a sweet and greasy voice: "Oh, as long as it is a girl, you won't refuse, I see." So Zhou Yi, can you accompany me to the informal inn in the alley today to seriously discuss the meaning of life? I have a lot of things I don't understand and want to ask you for advice, such as [beep-] and [beep-] and [beep-] and so on. ”

In addition, although this girl deliberately sells cuteness and behaves very contrived, she has a posture of getting the true biography of a blonde Lori, but the thin-skinned girl still blushes slightly when she talks about the last silenced words, and looks a little shy, and the lethality has suddenly increased exponentially, okay!

I was so hung by the blood on my face that I squirted out all the blood from my nostrils on the spot, even if I subconsciously held back, I completely lost the ability to think, and I could only ask stupidly: "Uh, you, you are a joke ...... it."

"It's not a joke. When the blonde girl said this, her face suddenly turned cold, and she didn't know where she felt out of nowhere and pulled a leather whip twice with both hands, "I will have a good (bite the accent) and you will have a serious and careful discussion." ”

Severe frostbite refers to the feeling of being thrown straight from the tropical desert onto the Antarctic ice sheet. With tears streaming down his face, the messy person in the wind suddenly shuddered, trembled, and asked cautiously: "What, Your Royal Highness Princess, have you turned on some strange switch?"

"Of course not, I'm just trying to see if you're really as you say you are. Emilina, with a dark face, pulled the whip again and made it make a terrible thud, "But it doesn't seem to be that way, do you have any resentment against me?"

"How could I have an opinion on a beauty like you, it's just that Lu Yin made an appointment this time, and I'll talk about it another day. "Thirty-six strategies to go up, it is obviously not a good idea to directly face the blonde girl with a tendency to blacken, I pulled up Lu Yin, who was already trembling with the legendary [Zhenggong aura], and turned around and left, "See you later." ”

Then I was grabbed by Emilina by the back collar and dragged back: "If you dare to take Lu Yin to the small hotel today, I will dare you to be sisters with Mengyun from now on." Anyway, give me a serious point, and then you have to accompany me. ”

Even though I was strangled and could barely breathe, I still asked myself in pain: "Bridge, bridge bean sack, Emilina, are you serious?"

"What do you mean, to discuss the meaning of life? Seriously, of course -- do you really think I'm going to say that?"

"Yes. ”

Emilina let go of me and clapped her hands casually, "I want you to accompany me outside the city, because I always feel like those synths are quietly planning to do something." Although the opponent has shown off new classes of weapons to use weapons, I don't think they will make more than just such preparations for attacking the city in advance. Well, if you want to be specific, I can't find any evidence or even clues to prove it, so you can just assume that it was my intuition as a woman. How about you, would you like to come with me?"

It's dangerous to go outside the city, but it's only dangerous, far from dead. Besides, although I and the blonde girl are partners, she has always been the leader, plus the character of the girl who can't be pulled back once she makes a decision, what else can I say?

"No problem, you can go wherever you want. But Emilina, what if we encounter a monster, will we tear it head-on?"

After all, I don't have the stealth skills of Her Royal Highness the Princess, and it is only a matter of time before I am discovered by the synths, and it is absolutely impossible for the other party to show me any kind of friendly welcome when I bet with a furball.

"Fighting is inevitable because I'm going to a different place. Emilina said unceremoniously patted off the two hands that Lu Yin was holding her arms, causing her two ponytails to tear up for a while, and then grabbed our cuffs and walked out, "I'm going to go to the monster's base camp to have a look." ”

――――――――――――――――――I'm the dividing line out of town――――――――――――――――――

The wilderness outside the city was quite terrifying for humans, and I was cautious for a long time after being dragged out by Emilina and teleporting out with black lines. But in the end, I realized that it didn't really make much sense.

The wilderness is full of lush vegetation with a variety of wildlife roaming freely, and the occasional dilapidated building covered with weeds and moss that has been used as a home for small animals and insects.

But the terrifying synthetic beasts have never seen a single one, and even if they are assembled, there must always be a few wild ones, right?

In fact, Emilina and I rode the lander for a long time, more like playing in a safari park, if it weren't for the fact that the blonde girl was always looking for the trace of the synth beast and didn't spend too much energy chatting with me, it is an exaggeration to say that this is a solo date between the two, we all believe it.

"Strange, where are all those guys hiding?" said Emilina, pouting a little depressed after another fruitless search, "With such a large force, and near the city, there is no way we can't find it." But all of them are inexplicably missing, and there is something strange in this. ”

Her Royal Highness is adorable at this pout, but now is not the time to appreciate it carefully. I wondered, very strangely, "Can't you feel the other person's breath?" Or maybe the smell is okay?"

"Are you really underwhelmed?" Emilina gave me a vicious look, but she didn't really hit anyone, "here's the problem, I can't feel the breath of those monsters at all, as if they're completely gone." ”

"Well, maybe they were really hurt by the local army and fled with their tails between their legs?"

"Zhou Yi, you are too optimistic and too blind. Emlina raised her hand and casually pointed to the various wild animals that were active around her, and said, "That germ can infect not only humans or other sapient races, but they can also affect other animals. But if you look at the situation now, it's clear that the germs are so contagious that they even amassed a large army near the city, and as a result, these wild animals are still very nourished, and they are not disturbed at all. Do you know what that means?"

If I haven't figured it out when I hear this, I don't have to mess around, and go back to live an ordinary life with Senior Sister Lan Yu.

"Hey, hey, do you mean that those germs have evolved wisdom and have understood the consequences of infecting all wild animals?"

"Didn't the gorillas who besieged the city today also take stones, sticks, and shields?"

"Well, just as we're dealing with some kind of evolutionary superlife, which today is anomalously manifested by the fact that it has finally produced intelligence over the course of several decades. So, instead of using all his strength to attack the city in one fell swoop, ignoring the losses, what is the reason for this guy to retreat in the middle of the fight? These synths obviously still have the strength to continue fighting. ”

Emmilina couldn't help but scratch her scalp in distress when she heard this: "It's because I don't understand this that I took you out to find the answer, after all, the possibility of infecting the wild animals around here and turning them into cannon fodder is still very high to capture Festa City, even if humans have mechas." But at the moment, I can't find any of these guys, and I don't know exactly what they plan to do. Damn, where the hell are they hiding!?"

I thought I should soothe the girl who looked a little crazy, so I smiled at her with a slight squeeze of my hands, "Don't get excited. Why don't we look further afield, and by the way, think of any way to block your investigation of the breath?"

"Seal your own breath, there are actually many ways to do this, for example, the strong can control the flow of energy in their bodies, and ordinary people can also achieve the same effect by hiding in the depths of some underground fortifications. Emmilina was suddenly stunned as if she had thought of something in the middle of her words, and it took a long time before she suddenly realized, "It's underground, those monsters must have been hiding underground!" Zhou Yi, let's turn back and see where the soil has been excavated on a large scale." ”

Do you think they're all ants!? But if you're hiding underground, it's a bit of a problem, and it's hard to find the entrance in the first place.

Of course, looking at Her Royal Highness the Princess's expression full of interest, I also knew that if I didn't find out the entrance today, I wouldn't want to go back to the hotel in the city to sleep at night.
